Printed Reproductions of Watercolors
painted by Anne Hathaway

The prints are done by different reproduction methods, and the method used is noted with each print.

Iris Giclée Prints
Iris Giclée prints are reproductions made with a digital file of an original painting and then printed with sophisticated inkjet printers. Newly developed inks have a tested life of well over 70 years. The colors of Iris Giclée prints are more vivid than offset lithograph prints. The accuracy and brilliance of color of the reproduction make it very difficult to tell the print from the original work of art. Iris Giclées are more expensive to produce, but their quality is well worth the investment.

Offset Lithographs
Offset Lithographs are made by photographing the original work and then making printing plates from the negatives. Ink is then applied and transferred from the plate to the paper.
